Christmas c/o Amazon

While not dressed in red, the whole Amazon business model -- as my favourite way of saving the day, does have its advantages. I am nice and warm, yet shopping for friends and family the other side of the world

BUT

Does the meaning get lost? I mean, I have not wrapped anything. I give the present by a click. I fear for the loss of the personal touch at these times.

Of course, the flip side is receiving a box in the post out of the blue. Maybe we should have random present giving day... instead of house-cleaner's day.
